Men, usually aged 12-22, who (a) are chubby/sweaty or (b) were assembled poorly in the womb and who, instead of making up for their lack of striking physical attractiveness by being funny, fun, interesting or down-to-earth will instead use any and all opportunities to put themselves down (especially in the presence of the opposite sex), stand in corners at parties, avoid conversations with friends at parties or take other measures in an attempt to get noticed. Manbabies are completely and utterly unable to grasp the idea that the pity points they earn from the occassional girl is not a sexual advance of any kind and will do nothing to improve their chances with a female. The behavior of manbabies at parties is as an enormous disservice to their friends, who must put up with the fact that they have a whiney, emotional, irrationally depressed and hopelessly romantic manbaby to worry about while they themselves are trying to meet girls. Tend to listen to a lot of angsty music (ie: Linkin Park, Slipknot) and are frequently heard describing how terrible they are with women.

"Dammit! He always does this whenever we go out."

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
